I think Jones is going to make the beating he put on Shogun look like a game of patty cake compared to what he does to Chael tonight.

Jones really has nothing against Chael.

Jones almost looks like he's annoyed about what he's saying, as if he's being coached to say it.  I just don't buy that he'd be legitimately that offended by anything Sonnen says.

I know Garcia isn't the most cerebral fighter but he does train at Jackson's and it just seems that throwing at least a few punches to the body, you know like the way McKenzie was TKOed in his last fight, might've been a good idea and might've kept his arms in to help defend tds.

The UFC will probably try to cut Leonard but he'll be given a new 5 fight contract via split decision...

It's in Leonard's best interests that the UFC cut him. The longer he continues to lose in the UFC due to him obviously not being UFC calibre, the less other promotions are going to want anything to do with him. 

It's already hard enough to sell a fight with a guy coming off of a 5 fight losing streak whether it be in the UFC or a regional promotion.

Ughh ****** start for me, Leonard just don't has it anymore. Can't believe I just realize this now after his 12th loss in a row but geez if Cody McKenzie puts a whooping on you, it's probably time for something else...

I picked Bedford, but I'm not too confident. I hope Miesha gives Caraway horrible advice between rounds again
